You've probably read the long output emerge gives when it encounters a file collision and the warnings not to file gratuitous bugs without full info on ebuilds and files etc. Well, this is not one of those cases, this is a valid bug. In the interim, you could also modify the ebuild locally (or slipstream your own patch) to rename the files before install. This will let you get both installed until the bug is fixed. -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckinnon@gmail.com
